Of course, she should just have said so, rather than write an email that forces Str8 to play the ogre.
Edited to add: Str8, I think it would be best for you to hire a babysitter for the reception, you will save yourself a lot of heartache and finger-wagging about proper etiquette, etc.

Since so many people hire sitters for receptions these days, I don't think she was being necessarily passive-agressive or rude. She probably just misread it. I have to endorse the separate room, sitter deal. I attended a wedding where I had no idea that there were children in attendance. They were neither seen nor heard.
